Anepischetosia maccoyi
A small to medium skink with tiny arms and legs. Variable but often showing a rainbow sheen. Tail is relatively long and, possibly due to relatively short legs, these skinks wriggle very much like a snake.
Within the debris of a fallen eucalyptus base in an outer urban back yard. Possibly finding termites.
Previous find of this had a yellow belly.

The tail's almost as thick as the body. Nice spotting.
